independent oflapge and numerous
gifts and requests, lie both incorrect
and harmful; incorrect and therefore
harmful, as leading 70 demands mp
on the society 3 charities which i'll
cannot meet, and diverting funds to-
channels which ought " come to it,
treasury.
An IMPRESSION has been prevalent
that certain vested funds Of the Socie-
ty were 80 large as to relieve it Of
dependence upon gifts of individuals
and churches. But those who enter
tain this view overlook facts most
clearly stated in the annual reports,
to the effect that it is owing 70
some exceptionally large bequests,
now mainly expended, that the
magnificent work accomplished dur.
ing the last decade has not impover-
ished the society, and that the con-
traction Of that work at an early day
is inevitable unless more ample re-
sources are provided.
On the first Of April last, as stated
in the seventh annual report, the
society held certain funds in trust,
amounting to $3O5, 972.28 Of which
it can use only the income, which
during last year amounted to $12,
445.14. At that time the society's
reserve fund had been reduced $l55.
1853, from which the income for the
year was 10, 1920. 1t is obvious that
funds which, in the aggregate yield
an income Of only $22,6O7. "a cannot
make the society independent and
are utterly inadequate for the PROSE
cution ofits work. Even in foreign
lands last year the cash expenditure
exceeded byslOO,OOO the entioe recei-
pts from abroad; and the appropria-
tons for the current year, which the
society may be called upon to pay,
amount to $17S,OOO. Then there is
the work of general distribution in
the South and West, the exploration
and supply Of regions outside OF the
fields ofall auxiliaries; the provision
for various classes and institutions
which are dependent on the free gifts
Of the society; all involving an
annual expenditure for which the
society must, in the nature Of the
case, act as the almoner of many con.
tributors.
| So far then is the society from be-
ing 'rich and independent" that il
needs the direct and generous sup
port Of the churches all through the
land. The very fact that it is rich
in the various elements enumerated
above, makes it dependent upon thos'
who desire to employ it as theil
agent for giving the widest circula
ton to the holy scripture. Why
should not every church put upor
its schedule for regular and liberia
contributions the work of the Amer
lean Bible Society?

II you are in any way interested
in the subject, the experience of Mr..
A. G. McGrew, a merchant at Man

you. Read what he says: About
a year ago was very sick with a
severe attack Of lung trouble. I
tried q great many physicians, and
they told me / had quick consulnp-
ton, and was entirely given up.so
weak that / could hardly walk. /
travelled all through Nebraska and
Colorado to try and get relief, but
without effect. Often times after Il
severe spell of coughing my friends
would cover me up, expecting every
moment l would breath my last. +
was then brought back home, and
as a last resort, like drowning

using Chamberlain's cough remedy

During the past week we have
read Of the unparalleled butchery of
five innocent children by a demented
and discouraged mother at Cleveland
O., the fearful scene closing with the
suicide Of the murderer. This is such
shocking affair as to make the
causes that led to the tragedy al
most unaccountable. The account
closes with these words: "Calebek
was drunken fellow" The question
Of the responsibility OF this awful
crime has been evolving in our
mind great deal for the last few
days, and we are trying to decide as
to the responsibility as between the
mother, the drunken father, the
man ESQ called who sold the poison
which made him drunken, and the
community which voted the license.
Reader, think Of it.

RICH AND INDEPENDENT.
These were the terms recently
used in the editorial columns of a
newspaper as descriptive Of the
American Bible Society, and as ex-
pressing perhaps widespread opin.
ion respecting it. What measure
of truth underlies such an opinion
il is well for those to consider, on
whom the society relies for syInpa-
thy and support.
No doubt the society is rich in
many respects; rich in the record Of
the work it has been doing for three
score and ten years; rich in the con-
seriousness Of having adhered through
all these years to the one distinct
aim, announced by it's founders, of
encouraging a wider circulation Of
the holy scriptures without note or
comment; rich in platform SO care
fully guarded as to invite the CO.
operation Of all persons who accept
the bible as a book which ought to
be read in every household; rich in
the unstintcd sympathies and affec-
tions Of a great host of life members
and contributors; rich also in YER
sions Of scriptures which have been
put at its disposal to facilitate the
circulation Of Gods work among
rude and iliiterate people, and in
plates and presses which cheaper
the price Of the printed book for all
classes Of men; and rich in oppor-
tunities for usefulness which are
open a. the present moment for pros
ecuting it, work ct home and in
other lands.
but the idea that the bible sOciety
has such resources for meeting its
yearly expenditures = % make Il
